Our VAT number is GB 848 9904 62.

Accessing our site and apps

Access to our site and apps is permitted on a temporary basis, and we reserve the right to withdraw or amend the service that we provide on our site or apps without notice (see below). We will not be liable if for any reason our site is unavailable at any time or for any period.

You are responsible for making all arrangements necessary for you to have access to our site and apps. You are also responsible for ensuring that all persons who access our site and apps through your internet connection are aware of these terms, and that they comply with them.

Booking through Cheapflights

If you make a booking for a travel product through our site or apps, that booking is made with the travel provider named on the booking page and our sites and apps only act as user interfaces. Accordingly we have no responsibility for the booking or the travel product because we have no involvement in creating the description of the travel product, in defining the price and any fees, and in providing the travel products that you book. If you have any issues or disputes around your booking and/or the travel product, you agree to address and resolve these with the travel provider and not with us.

Member accounts, passwords and security

Certain areas of the website or the app may be password-restricted and require registration or sign-in before they can be accessed. When you complete our registration process you will receive a profile and you select your own password that will enable you to access all travel services. You agree to maintain the confidentiality of your password, and are fully responsible for all liability and damages resulting from your failure to maintain that confidentiality and all activities that occur through the use of your password. You agree to immediately notify us of any unauthorised use of your password or any other breach of security. You agree that Cheapflights cannot and will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this policy.

When you have logged in to your profile you will remain logged in until you log out even if you close the browser used by you.
